My dad is awesome. He didn't want the ipad the college gave him, so it's MINE. But I still think the name is very unfortunate. Ipad? Really? That was the best you could come up with, Apple?

Headed back home for a couple of weeks before school starts. I'm looking forward to it. Haven't seen dad since the beginning of the summer, and we really do need to talk about everything, even though he said he was okay with everything that's been going on with me.

I'm not sure how I feel about school starting. It's not a good feeling. It won't be like it was last year. Last year was the best ever. But now with Beck and a lot of my friends graduated... It'll be different. Real different.

I'd better go. Got to get the van an oil change before I go. See everyone in a few weeks. Love you, Beck!

Bored. Tired. Sad. Maybe I'll go to the hobby store today, stock up on RPG stuffs for the fall.

San Diego Comic Con is going on RIGHT NOW. I had the tickets bought, 5 day passes for Beck and me. Obviously, we didn't go. It was where we first got together, and we didn't go. I know he feels bad about it too, but we're not even talking about it. He's with Mabel at the doctor's, didn't even wake me up to go with them. I know, he probably wanted me to rest. I need to get out of here for a while.

Good night go-karting last night with some of the gaming guild guys. Gotta do that again sometime real soon.

Congratulations, Grads!

I'm a Senior now, and finally have my turn at having my own room. Won't be the same not having you right there, Kelly! We better end up in the same dorm, at least!

And the very best news? THIS. She's my baby! Her name is Leviathan. Dad and I went out and got her this past weekend. I finally have my own ride!

So it's official, I'm taking summer classes. Just a few things to bolster my GPA a little bit. And I think they'll be kind of fun. Taking World Art History, Geometry of Art & Design, Popular Novels, and Culinary Arts.

In the immortal words of Baldrick, I have a cunning plan.

It'll be a miracle if I don't fail everything.

Finals.

Regular gaming guild this week on Wednesday, then next week is going to be our last one for the year. And I'm planning something REALLY SPECIAL, so everyone be sure to come! It's going to be a mix of our regular RP with some cosplay elements and geocaching. Should be a lot of fun, I hope!

Beck

I guess I hadn't been thinking about it when I'd asked, or maybe I did think about it a little bit, but this'll be the first prom we've gone to together, and don't know if we'll get to go to another dance like this, at least not for a while. I'm glad you said you'd go.

It's a masquerade thing, so we'll get to wear masks! Fun, huh?

As soon as you hear anything today about Mabel, let me know. I'll be at the hospital to visit right after classes.

Cancelling gaming guild tomorrow night. We're saying that the entire group took a brief rest from the adventure to get their energy back. And yeah, this means there'll be plenty of stat buffs to go around when we meet next time.

Good thing I cancelled guild tonight. Got too much last minute homework to do. Blech! I'd rather be packing, but homeowrk first...

OMG, just go and tell the whole world my personal business. Great.

Any news from schools, Beck? I was hoping you'd hear back from some before we leave for break.

Gaming Guild, tonight! Next week, of course, we won't have it. Next week I'll be on vacation with my man!

OMG. I've got the coolest friends EVER.

Hey Danny! I'm probably going to be making the rounds looking for a car again in a couple of weeks. Seen any good deals around lately?

[BECK]

BEEEEEEEECK!

I'MMA GONNA MISS YEW!

Sotp by tonight sometime, 'kay? Cuz I know you probably won't have time to tomorrow before you go to AUSTRALIA!

[/BECK]

Gamers! I don't have the heart to have gaming guild next Wednesday with all the Seniors gone. So I'm making an executive decision, we're all going to Dave & Buster's instead. Bring your moneys for the games!

OH, COME ON!!!

Has anyone seen my iPhone? It's got Super Mario Bros. stickers on the back of it. I think I last saw it... Monday night? Or yesterday morning? Shit! I CANNOT lose ANOTHER of these things!

OMG.

TOTALLY 'GASMING.

HAVE THE BEST BOYFRIEND EVER.

Just so there's no confusion, I'm calling dibbs on you for Sunday, okay? You're MINE. And yes I have some ideas for plans, but don't ask what they are, because I'm not totally sure if they're gonna be Super Secret Plans or not.

[Beck]

So. Last weekend was 'be TV zombies weekend'. This weekend has to be 'get up off our lazy asses and do something weekend'. Any ideas? There's not really enough good snow for sledding or snowball fights or snow angels or anything. It's just kinda slushy on the ground and slush angels sounds gross. So...?
